Music, music, & more music, with that New Orleans flavor. In fact, music is the essence
of my existence & persistence. But of coarse, their other things that I do enjoy, other than
music. Such as, the wind that blows beneath the clouds, that gives life to all the creatures
and beings of this world. The heavenly stars that shine so bright, with a illuminating yet
mysteries glow. The calm but slightly chilling air, that blows on a warm winter night.
These are just a few of my poetic moods, in life. But as for my worldly interests
they are in.... Automotive Restoring(fixing classic cars, my beloved hobby. sometimes I
suppose, depends on my mood & funds), Computer Maintenance(building & fixing my
PC), Landscaping(If I'm feeling constructive), Boxing(I'm the greatest fighter that ever
lived, yeah right.), Fishing(you catch some, you lose some), Family Barbecues, Current
Events(headline news or late night with Jay Leno), People(my brothers & sisters of the
world), and all forms of Expressive Art.

As for myself. I am Musician who loves Jazz, Blues, & Classic Soul. Their is just something about the music of Blues, it has a very emotional connection to the struggles of every day life. Although however it is seemingly to say that, the music of Jazz offers a more gloomy almost ironic happy feeling of sadness. While as the music of Soul offers a feeling of hope throughout those struggles of everyday life. So therefore, this is meaning less to say, because the music of Blues, Jazz & Soul already speaks for itself theoretically & musically.♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣My main talent for music is Vocals, & Musical foundation. As for musical instruments... I play the Harmonica (in all types & keys), & the tenor saxophone, which sometimes varies in its own musical sound structure.♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣ I guess you could say that I am a very secluded individual with a real understanding of what the Blues really is. I certainly lack the many friendships, which life has offer & I am diffidently not popular with the rich or so called sophisticated free spirit rebels. In addition, If I do have any friends...I guess you could say, they would most likely be somewhere in their mature, to advance stages in life. Most of them commonly, in the older to lower middle class group, that have traveled down the wrong path in youth (streetwise working class people). However, nevertheless I at least have my supportive family, good health, & the company of god. “So Everyday I may have the blues, but my spirit & soul still remains persistent.”
Who I'd like to meet: Ray Charles, Charlie Bird Parker, Flip Phillips, Sonny Terry, Little Walter, Jr. Walker, & David Fathead Newman.
